Nice idea (and far better than most of the stuff on the CAFC list) :)

    It's in the description B.

    "Autographed size four football from Charlton Athletic Champions winning season 2011-2012.The ball is signed by the players and manager. The money raised from the sale of this item of memorabilia will be donated to the Charlton Fans Protest Fund. CARD has organised a variety of protests, in response to the owner and CEO's mismanagement of the club, resulting in relegation back into the First Division, from where Charlton Athletic were promoted as Champions in 2011-2012. Please offer as much as you can to help with the fans fund, which has so far contributed to:- Badges, posters, banners, beer mats and balloons, branded with Roland Out or We Want Our Charlton Back, a large billboard near to The Valley, a free alternative to the club's programme, black and white scarfs, a trailer poster positioned at the club and training ground, etc, etc. Plus plenty more for the coming season. Card have also received a large donation from one of the club's previous sponsors, but will continue to need to raise further funds to continue fan protest activities."

    @Henry Irving, I don't want this for myself but would be happy to bid if you could find a place for it in the museum.

    The guy doing this always seems like a genuinely nice guy on the CAFC unofficial Facebook page.

    Believe he's had a Charlton book published in the past as well

    Great.

    Can I just say part of my problem on this is that I was willing to pay more and donate it to the museum but have a chunk also go to CARD coffers.

    I made a mistake the last time I bid and only went up to £51 which leaves me unable to bid myself higher.

    not to worry, if bidding doesn't reach my maximum, I'll donate the balance and the ball will have raised the amount of the bid+donation.

    Happy days, bids came in to lift the donation to CARD up to around £100 and the museum gets the ball.

    Thanks to the seller.
